don't know Well I was thinking tonight. Originally I was thinking of putting a bigger cam in the engine that is sitting here, and getting a forged crank....... I was thinking maybe I should just get the intake ported for my 58mm plate, and get a 58mm TB, if its not already done, stud the mains, and call it a day. What would you guys do? If I get a cam I'd probably have to do valve springs and retainers and if I get a crank get shit rebalanced. The engine is ready to go now, it the Merv's old rig. It made 335rwhp through his dying auto, I figure if I just stick it in the car as is I should make about 350rwhp. And still have the 200 shot. Well whats your guys opinions? I'm really starting to sway away from the cam idea, and causing all that drama. |
It's got Forged Rods and Pistons, I see it handling a 150 Shot no problems, that's probably all you need. The Heads and Intake are Port-Matched and it runs at about 11:1 Compression, so it would love a little bit of juice.

Everyone's a comedian..:rolleyes: :jest: |
Hey merv, are the mains studded? If not I guess I will do that and pray the crank doesn't cry uncle under the nitrous, its going to be RPM progressive through a FJO. I just want to get it done. |
